Form & Verdict
0-6 over hurdles last season but travelled strongly to make a winning chase debut at Market Rasen (2m6f, good to soft) in May, showing much improved form; had wind surgery in September but pulled up at Warwick (soft) three weeks ago when next seen; should have come on since that run.

Three-time chase winner; just missed out at Uttoxeter in March (2m4f) and it was a Class 2 in which he couldn't land any real blow the last time; can cope with this mark and should go well in this easier race.

J: James Bowen

Rebounded from poor performance and went down fighting when second at Uttoxeter (2m4f, good to soft) last month; up in grade and 2lb higher but ran very well over C&D on both previous visits to Chepstow, more notably when winning by 3l on good ground a year ago.

Form & Verdict
Progressive 8yo who returned from a break with two wins (2m5f/2m3f) this autumn and is now 4-8 for Sam England, with all of those four wins registered at Sedgefield on soft ground; has been raised another 5lb and this isn't Sedgefield but he has to be taken seriously.

Standing dish here with all five career wins having come at the venue and on slow ground, including over this trip; produced one of his better efforts when second here last Boxing Day but not as good since; back on a very handy mark and can go well.

Five-time course winner (2m3f/2m5f) who was second here on Boxing Day and has had excuses on both starts since, namely the 3m2f trip here then a different course (Market Rasen); could play a leading role back here.

J: Jonathan England

All five wins over fences have been at Sedgefield; didn't appear to get home there over 3m2f (good to soft) when seventh of nine finishers last month but best to wait until he returns to his favourite venue at a more suitable trip.

Form & Verdict
11yo who is 5-24 over fences; not disgraced over 2m on seasonal debut and will be suited by this move back up in trip; player if that outing four weeks ago did him good and it's notable that his most recent win came in this race last year (second time out; on soft) off 2lb lower; should go well.

Not getting any younger and no longer the force of old but posted a sound effort when third over C&D (soft) last month and is another 2lb lower today; can make his presence felt again.

Form & Verdict
Won over hurdles at Market Rasen (good) in September and also with a strong finish over fences at Sedgefield (soft) 12 days ago; 3-5 in this sphere, with one of the wins at 2m4f, and he's a leading contender despite going up another 4lb.

Sits 4lb higher than when scoring at Sedgefield (2m3f, soft) last November, a form line given a boost by Neigh Botha at Southwell on Tuesday; turned in a solid effort on return to jumps action at Stratford (third) a fortnight ago and could have more to offer; probable contender.
